Just to be clear...
The upgrade / wallet update procedures are the same as with the last several bitcoin versions. There is nothing special about updating to this release, versus past releases.
The advice posted in this thread is standard, general advice that you should always follow when updating: back up your wallet (you are doing this anyway, right?)

mine was fine, wallet survived install
Same. Win 7 32bit - On startup, UI loaded then locked up ("Not Responding") for a few seconds before the first connection was established.

These installs seem to be getting more complex. I'll stick with 0.3.21. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) WTF? Does it still ask you for ridiculous fees?

Wait, it worked in RC1 but not RC3? RC1 did not have the fix applied. RC3 (which is the same build as final, aside from some translations) did.

When I got into bitcoin, a major selling point was "no fees". I guess the greed got to them. There never was the need to pay fees for bitcoin transactions. It was only that this specific client did not accept weird transactions from peers without fees to prevent spam. With Bitcoin you are free to use whatever client you want - and changed as you like.

Smooth install, noticeable improvements. Great work! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Patiently anticipating the wallet encryption patch, if its implemented right it will be a excellent addition.

Well, I tested RC1 and it started without any problems. Now I tried the final and I got the error message. Out of curiosity, I also tried RC3 which failed too.

I guess I'll stop including that file and see if 0.4 works. I really don't get why including that file does not work, but not including it does, but only on RC1 and I really dont feel like digging through MinGW headers to find out. I don't think its nearly worth a 0.3.24.1 just to support Windows 2000, as you shouldn't be using a EOL OS ever (if you even remotely care about security).

I won't demand a release just for that ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) I'm well aware that it's EOL, but well, it's running on that one machine just fine. It's just on to run a bunch of services 24/7; nobody really uses it for browsing. It looked like a pretty simple fix, that's why I suggested adding it.

Well, I tried, Ill try again with 0.4, if you are willing, PM me and Ill churn out a couple more builds for you to test so that its for sure fixed in 0.4.

For those of you who (1) can't wait for a Mac build, (2) trust a random stranger on the Internet to provide you with their copy of Bitcoin, (3) want the changes I've made to Bitcoin (Which I hope is setting required transaction fee to 0 for creating transactions and relaying), and (4) use a 64-bit Snow Leopard system, I've posted my build up at http://dl.dropbox.com/u/16187822/Bitcoin-0.3.24-pc.dmg. I highly suspect that I'm the only person who wants this, but who knows?

When I got into bitcoin, a major selling point was "no fees". I guess the greed got to them. LOL, I know it shouldn't be necessary to understand all the inner workings of the Bitcoin concept in order to use it, but this statement is pretty hilarious in light of the facts. There's nobody to whom "the greed" could "get". The fees are an optional feature (i.e. you can still send transactions without them) with three related functions: - DoS prevention - incentivizing mining - transaction priority management The fees get paid to the miners who process your transaction, not "the man".
